A few weeks ago I was lucky enough to win a Eden Organic Care Avocado Oil as part of a giveaway hosted by the talented Beauty from the Fjord.
The day I found out I had won, Eden Organic Care had been on twitter to say they were doing half price oils so I had almost bought one anyway. What good timing for me!
This is 100% organic oil, certified by both the Soil Association and COSMOS. It is pure, cold pressed avocado oil- no other ingredients at all! The oil is jam packed full of antioxidants, vitamins, proteins and fatty acids which all work in harmony with the skin and hair to heal, regenerate and moisturise. The product description on the website also says that avocado oil contains properties which help support the production of collagen in the skin and in therefore an excellent treatment for lines and wrinkles.
Now it might not look very appealing, being such a vivid green, but the oil absorbs quickly and doesn't leave any colour behind. Being 100% avocado oil also means that it comes with a pleasant nutty scent but again, this doesn't linger. I actually found the scent to be really lovely, especially when using it as a treatment for my hair.
The oil is truly versatile - you can use it on your hair, face, body, nails and hands.
I have been using it primarily as a hair treatment. When I'm rushed I apply the oil, a couple of pumps at a time, to my scalp and give it a good massage through, right down to the ends. I try to leave it on for as long as I can before washing it out. When I'm not rushed, I leave it on overnight as an intensive treatment. I have unruly hair but I have noticed a difference to the shine after blow drying.
You can buy Eden Organic Care Avocado Oil here for just £14.99 for 100ml.
